i wonder if we will ever have our own drift king :notworthy
but as we all no that drifting has been around in japan since the late 1980s
so we have got a bit of time to catch up on :nod:

given the crap the press usually print i was expecting to read "enraged parent blames japaneese car antics for childs poor exam results"
a car going sideways 70 miles away causes young boy to fail spanish exam.
tony liar quoted "well i empathise with the family but as i am unable to tax this activity at the moment i couldnt give a sh1t"
john prescott quoted "doughnuts? give ere!"
a local councilor quoted "oh the noise was terrible,we need this venue closed to all sorts of motor activity"
local resident "stop this vandalism now"
local shop keeper "these car drivers come here and spend loads of money in a shop that isnt finacialy viable and then leave causing no damage ,im all in favour of this kind of event"
new headline "Local shop burned down"
police search for non spanish speaking youth and parents.
venue closed to make way for asylum seekers camp.
house prices plummet.
